Some good discussion regarding WNBA totals/spreads in Dave's thread the other day - thought we could all rendevous here until the WNBA link tab goes up. Will continue to update numbers as I'm only really betting on hoops until football starts back up.
Current Totals Trend based on game time:
Games played after 6:00p EST: 24-9 to the OVER
Games played before 3:00 EST: 10-3 to the UNDER
Current SU/ATS:
Home favorites SU: 27-6
Away favorites SU: 17-5
Home favorites ATS: 17-15-2
Away Favorites ATS: 15-7-0
Today's games:
Atlanta Dream @ Indiana Fever: Indiana -2.5, Total 162.5
San Antonio Stars @ Los Angeles Sparks: LA -15.5, Total 165
Two out of three of the only under games from the LA Sparks came when they played before 3:00 EST. The other game that went under was an outlier where they shot 38% from the field - they are currently shooting 48%. Conversely, San Antonio's only under games were games where they decided to play defense. San Antonio opponents are averaging around 40-45% per game. Two out of the four times when the under hit and it was not before 3:00 EST, opponents averaged 34% and 38%. The other time, they were playing Minnesota in a blowout (9-0). I expect them to rise to the occasion here in hopes of giving Los Angeles (6-3) a run and trying to at least inch their way to their first win (0-8). Neither team really plays defense either..
To honor Dave and all his hard work and inspiration over the years, in the sights WNBA....
